In 2011, the Company paid News America Marketing In-Store, LLC (News America) $4,000,000 in exchange for a 10-year arrangement to sell signs with price into News America’s network of retailers as News America’s exclusive agent. The $4,000,000 is being amortized over the 10-year term of the arrangement. Amortization expense was $400,000 for each of the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 based on straight-line amortization over the term of the arrangement and is recorded within cost of services in the Company’s statement of operations. Amortization expense is expected to be $600,000 in 2019, $262,000 in 2020 and $55,000 in the year ending December 31, 2021, respectively.
